It's Official! We Love Drowsey Monkey!

The staff at Crotchety Old Man World-Wide International Headquarters and Discount House of Worship met recently to discuss the annual process of selecting our favorite Canadian. Mike Myers and Jim Carrey were the first names that came to mind. Vincent D’Onofrio was bandied about, but it turns out that he is from Brooklyn, NY, and is only lusted after by Canadians.

Finally, a senior staff member tossed out the name Drowsey Monkey. After assuring the rest of the staff that Drowsey Monkey is neither an act in the Kama Sutra, nor an adult cocktail, it was decided to look more closely.

We launched a full scale investigation, including credit checks, employment history, and snacking history.

We couldn’t find any of that stuff, but what we did find is the following information:

1. The name Drowsey Monkey is derived from a favorite doll from her childhood, partnered with a monkey that belonged to her sister.

We can only be grateful their favorite toys weren’t Fuzzy Wuzzy and Super balls.

2. She has an unnatural affinity for widgets.

3. She seems to be somewhat obsessed with imfommercials and penguins. If Freud weren’t already dead, this would have surely killed him.

4. She has a car with various quirks (hmm, ever notice some similarities with people and their cars?) named Ruby.

And finally,

5. She is one of the funniest and friendliest ladies in the blogosphere.

For these reasons, we are pleased to announce Drowsey Monkey as our Canadian of the year, and coincidentally to wish her a happy one year blogiversary.

A special note from Vince just for Drowsey
